Odds From Betonline.ag 

Both of these clubs are coming here after playing against a top flight team in the Bundesliga table. However, what is actually interesting is the fact that FC Union Berlin was completely dominated in their losing effort against Bayern Munich. FC Cologne for their part, though, was able to hold their ground against a very strong opponent in Borussia Dortmund and played to a draw. Look for that experience to help the Koln club in this match here and I see that helping FC Cologne getting the win, but also for neither offense to jump off in this game leading to an under in the totals.
